My mum came to stay for a few days today. I love her and am really glad to see her but, why is it that I have already marked on the calendar the day she goes back home?
I don't normally, but this year I did. I have been hearing some music around for a while and liked it and thought to myself 'Need to get that...'. And then they go and win The Mercury Prize! Yep... The XX. So I bought it. Their CD. It's good! Actually better than that... like Interpol or Joy Division. But more dreamy.
Today will be nine years since those towers fell. I remember it. It'll also be nine years since I was stood on top of Mount Vesuvius...
Today I am going to apply for a new passport. It's been too long. It's time to get back on that plane.
